⏩ COVENANT OF MARVELS ⏪ DAY 16 "6 THINGS TO DO FOR A NET BREAKING AND BOAT SINKING MIRACLE"


SCRIPTURE 


Luke 5:1-11



KEY STATEMENT

At the very same place where Peter toiled all the night and failed, Jesus showed up in the morning and turned the failure into A NET BREAKING AND BOAT SINKING PLACE.
"Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake." (Luke 5:5)
Why did Peter fail? What happened that turned his failure into success?
  • Peter failed because Jesus was out of his boat. He succeeded when Jesus entered in the boat. 
  • Peter failed because he relied on his own expertise and experience. He succeeded when he relied on Jesus' word and wisdom 
  • Peter failed when he was in darkness. He succeeded when light came. 
  • Peter failed because he was using the boat only for his own interest. He succeeded when the boat shifted to serve Christ's interest. 
  • Peter failed because he lacked divine direction and divine instruction. He succedeed when he obeyed divine direction and followed divine instruction. 
  • Peter admitted his failure and refused to dwell in it. He took Jesus at his word, obeyed the instruction and turned from failure into success.

6 THINGS TO DO TO TURN YOUR PLACE OF FAILURE INTO A NET BREAKING AND BOAT SINKING PLACE

2 Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore if any man [be] in Christ, [he is] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."
